Preview: James Payne: Tuning Up Amateur Show Horses

James likes to keep everything simple when he is tuning up his Amateur show horses for his clients. He talks about the importance of working an Amateur horse according to how the owner rides. He wants to make sure that his Amateur horses have the confidence and understanding to stop and turn around with the cow, even if its not technically correct all the time. James talks us through each horse’s strengths and weaknesses, which helps explain what he is doing, and why.

Part 1
James works a 6 year old that's a little lazy. He wants to get the horse to take more responsibility and be more honest in the show pen for the owner.
Part 2
James works this 5 year old that wants to get a little swoopy in the turn and more playful than the previous 6 year old.
Part 3
This 5 year old is pretty cowy and honest about her job but tends to want to turn a little too early! So James works on getting her to hold the stop better.

Trainers in this Video

How I got started: I worked for Dick Piper for eight years as a reiner in 1996. When the Pipers switched to cutting because of Playgun I switched to training cutters as well. I leased stalls for a year at the Pipers and trained for the public.
